Companion Agency for Women

A discreet accompaniment practice providing confidential counsel, continuity, and sustained presence, informed by chaplaincy formation and ethical restraint, where support is absent.

The Practice

A Private Counsel Practice

HerConstans operates as a private counsel and advisory office. The practice exists to provide a composed, intelligent, and confidential presence within the lives of a limited number of women whose professional or personal circumstances require discretion, continuity, and sound judgment.

Engagements are advisory in nature and defined by trust, discernment, and professional restraint.

HerConstans is not a public service. It is an independent practice accepting a small number of engagements at any one time.

The Nature of Engagement

Retained Presence & Accompaniment

Certain engagements require more than intermittent counsel. They require continuity of presence.

Where appropriate, HerConstans works with a small number of women on a retained basis, offering discreet personal accompaniment alongside confidential counsel. This may include attendance at social or professional engagements, shared meals, travel, or periods of close proximity during demanding seasons of life. On occasion this may also include overnight stays as part of extended accompaniment.

HerConstans’ presence is always defined by role rather than function and does not engage for performance, display, or entertainment, but as a steady, grounded presence. HerConstans is relied upon to hold context, discretion, and moral clarity in both private and public settings.

All engagements are conducted within clear ethical boundaries. There is no sexual dimension, no expectation of intimacy, and no blurring of roles. The nature and extent of accompaniment is established by mutual understanding and reviewed as the relationship develops.

This form of engagement is selective, long-term, and retainer-based. It is suited to women for whom discretion, continuity, and trusted personal presence are essential and absent.

Engagement Model

Retainer-Based Counsel

HerConstans is structured exclusively on a private retainer basis.

There are:

  • No public bookings

  • No casual consultations

  • No volume engagements

Terms are arranged privately following an initial enquiry and are structured around continuity rather than transaction.

The relationship is defined by trust, discernment, and continuity, and is shaped carefully over time.

With, not instead of.

Eligibility & Selectivity

Scope & Consideration

HerConstans accepts engagements selectively.

The practice is oriented toward:

  • Women without ongoing companionship

  • Those seeking an external, confidential advisory presence

  • Clients capable of entering a formal retainer-based engagement

Engagements are considered individually. Availability is limited.

CONDUCT & BOUNDARIES

Professional Standards

HerConstans maintains strict professional boundaries.

The practice does not provide:

  • Clinical or therapeutic services

  • Domestic or personal assistance

  • Sexual or physical intimacy

    Accompaniment or shared presence may form part of the engagement and may occur in social or professional settings, in private or public contexts, over shared meals, or during travel. On occasion this may involve overnight stays. In all cases, presence is undertaken strictly in role defined by professional judgment and ethical restraint, conducted in accordance with the strict boundaries as outlined above.

The value of the practice lies in continuity in presence, sound judgment, discretion and moral clarity.
